PACE FOUR THK EVENING HERALD. KLAMATH FAU&. OREGON .Tammrv 8, IDIIU Editorials News of Other Days Place Names Women's Features Road Requests Are Fair WHAT IS ASKED FOR COMING YEAR ' About Censor sh ip Five-Year Demand Is Moderate THE five-year state highway plan rec ommended by the Klamath county court and chamber of commerce mani fest moderation of demand that should be both convincing and appreciated in commission councils. Five years is a long time, and if the next five are any thing like the last, the fullest comple tion of the program outlined will hard ly take care of the business. We are particularly interested at the moment in what lies ahead for 1932. The program contemplates certain activity for the year which is necessary to reap the benefits of work already , done, to catch up on a project which is ' deplorably in arrears of the demand, for improvement, and to make way for a third project which is bound to go ahead in the near future. The first item in the outline is the construction of the overhead crossing and the paving of the re-alignment graded last year on The Dalles-California highway at Terminal City, north of Klamath Falls. The commission in vested $35,000 in the grading of this section last year, an investment whose benefits are frozen until further work is done as proposed by the court and chamber. This -work, it is understood, is definitely in the 1932 program. So also, and we say it with pride and pleasure, is the improvement of the Merrill-Malin road, the other section of The Dalles-California highway listed for immediate action. Nothing more need be said about the deplorable con dition of this heavily traveled section, which should have been taken care of long ago. The other project which belongs on the coming year's program is the desig nation of the route for the Klamath Falls-Weed highway to the state line. This is asked in order that rights-of-way may be available when time comes for the work to start and that in itself, cannot be far in the future on a road which motorists are determined to use, and use heavily, regardless of its condition. Completion of the oiling of the un treated sections of the Klamath Falls Lakeview road is another matter wanted for 1932, important in knitting together two leading trading centers of south central Oregon. Continued progress on the Willamette highway is in order. These are the projects on which im mediate action is asked. They are of not merely local significance, but fit into the larger program of highway de velopment. They are all here at once, and clamoring for action, because of the rapid development of the Klamath country, because of the significant ten dency of traffic to traverse the east mountain routes, because of connecting highway work in California and be cause the highway program in this part of the state has not been kept in pace with that in others. They deserve a place in plans for immediate action. The other proposals, and what am plifications there may be of those men tioned, certainly should be completed in five years. They belong in the five year plan of the state highway commission. JERRY CHAPTER XXII Jerry and Bud were waiting out in the vastry. Jerry looked better than ha felt. At laaat Bud told him he looked good, and Jerry said he didn't feel good. Squeam ish, he guessed, waa the word, only bo didn't like that word. Bud waa partly to blame for Jerry'a condition. "Better drink up, old man. You'll need It." he had told him Just before they went out to gat Into tha cab with Mrs. Corbett. "Not on my wedding day, Bud." "Mora than ever now," Bud had answered, and they had kept the cab waiting twenty minutes while they drank four straight ones. Jarry waa feeling It terribly now. Ha always did get It mora quickly than Bud. It wasn't making him feel gay or silly, uat befuddled. "What are we waiting for?" he asked Bud quite loudly. "How ahould I know? I never went to any mora weddings than you did." Aa It In answer to Jerry's ques tion somewhere from the walls an organ began to play very aoft ly. He smiled a little to himself. It reminded him of the movies. That waa the only place he had ever hoard an organ. Funny ha couldn't feel solemn about It at all. Good thing he took the drink. Couldn't have gone through It he hadn't had a little stimulant. "Must ba time to go out." Bud was peering through the door. "He aald for us to hit out there when the organ started to play." Jarry aald, "God, I feel alck." Hud aald, "The liquor." "No, I don't think so. I think It's Just the marriage buaineaa. Iff got ma going." "Belter get a good whiff of air " They walked ovar to tha win dow and Jerry breathed so deep ly that hla head began to swim. - tf - JOAN "Come on." Bud waa pulling at his arm: "We're got to go." Jerry and Bud went out the door and started for the altar. Jerry waa dated. God. It waa overwhelming, you didn't know where you were at, going Into anything ao blindly. Why hadn't he asked aomebody what to do at weddings? He couldn I remem ber having ever seen any except a reporter'a once, and that had been In the City Hall. They just went and atood over by a window and answered a few questions. Jerry remembered that tha tower on the Jeweler'- Building had glistened like polished gold in tha bright sunlight. Rut this, people coming down the aisle, Joan white and beautiful, Cliarl cla and Mania In filmy blue frocks that swished around them when they walked, Mr. Prentice looking very sad and ttralght ahead ... Where were they all going to stand? There wasn't a lot of room there. Jerry'a toa caught a potted fern. It fell with a loud bang. Homebody tittered. Jerry felt bis face burning. Marcla waa thinking, "My God. He want out of hla way to hit It." Joan was thinking, "Jerry, darling, how could you do this to ma?" Dick was thinking, "I knew it, tha damn fool Is drunk." Mrs. Cor bett waa thinking, "They ahould have had the fern farther up on the steps." Jerry waa thinking that ha wished It ware all over. Dud was thinking the same thing. Jerry saw a aea of facet swim ming all around him. Huddenly It waa all fixed up somehow and he waa standing ehere by Joan, he had his arm up In front of him and har hand waa reatlng on hla dark broadcloth sleeve. A firm mafcultna voice behind Joan aald, "I do." There Wna a terrible alienee tha worst Jerry had ever experi enced, and thon the preacher be gan: ' "Dearly boloved bralhern . , ," -Park ing Blunder Almost Kept F ro mPrint IN Russia last Saturday, a horrible train wreck occurred, two trains crashing into a third and still another plowing throuirh the injured as they lay on a parallel track. News of the event did not leak out until Thursday of this week, and then every effort was made to keep the details obscure. In Soviet Russia the government runs the railroads. It runs the newspapers. What occurred was a terrible blunder, the sort of thing which those respon sible would like to keep from the pub lic knowledge as much as possible. Hence the censorship, which was well-nigh airtight for five days. In the United States, where there is a free and independent press, such a pro cedure is unimaginable. That press tells the happenings of the day, and when there are blunders, the blame falls where it may. Without it, what would public opinion be? Continued Enforcement Should Solve Problem IN a communication to this page, a subscriber wants to know what is to be done to take care of the people who drive down town to trade on busy days and are no longer allowed to double park in front of the business houses in which they intend to trade. It is a reasonable question. The answer to this problem lies in the continued campaign for enforce ment of the traffic ordinances. The police are pushing in that direction by putting teeth in the overtime parking ordinance, which should open up legal parking space to just such persons as our correspondent. If selfishness is subordinated to the general good and traffic is kept moving in and out of the parking zones as is done is every other city where an orderly traffic program is carried out, the short-time parkers should find no inconvenience. It is not beyond reason that some movement may develop for community parking space down town which will care for the office and shop folk who have been freezing the legal space for half-days at a time. Our Suggestion Still Stands THE Salem Statesman relates a story of a man in Seattle who was ap proached by a fairly well dressed pedestrian and asked for the customary price of a meal. The quick-witted Se attle man commented that he hadn't had much luck that day, and the other fellow, thinking he had happened on a fellow pan-handler, replied that he had been doing fairly well by collecting $13. Our suggestion that the way to han dle the panhandler is to refuse his re quest, and, if wishing to give, hand the amount over to the agencies which feed and care for such fellows, still stands. Any region that can grow prima donna hens must be a great country. lly tiro Jerry would be (lad when it was all over, when they could run away from everybody and everything, when he could hare Joan all to himself, to hold and to love. Why did people go through thla boring ceremony? It didn't mean a thing. There waa a terrible alienee again. Bud whispered raucously: "I, Jerry, take thee, Joan." He realized his mistake too late. For the minute he hadn't been able to think that Jerry had another name. Jerry repeated jerkily: "1 Jerry, take thee, Joan." Juan seemed not to notice. She was saying her linea now. "1 Joan, take tbee, Jerry, for my wedded husband." Jerry felt her fingers tighten on his arm. It made blm (eel better, gave him a little courage. Tha clergyman droned on tba old familiar ritual. Jerry waa trying to keep hit mind from wandering' again. Mustn't get stuck a ha did this last time. That was terribly embarrassing. The clergyman teemed to bo swaying in front sf him, or waa it that last drink made blm ap pear like that "Speak now, or forever hold your peace." There was silence again. Jarry looked at Bud Inquiringly. Oh, no, of course not. How ridicul ous! That wm for anybody who wanted to stop the wedding. Joan thought the clergyman would never continue. . Hhe had been afraid of that sentence. Dick had told her onra ha wat going to take advantage of It. Later he had promised her that he would n't make a scene, howavtr. Just tha same, Joan wished the preach er would hurry on. Jerry listened very carefully the rent of Ilia way through. He didn't even have to ba prompted hy Bud on his "1 do's." Things were going bettor now, he felt. It was easy. Tbea It wat all ovtr. Marcla and rharlrle had grabbed Joan away from him and were whirl Inn har arouml toward tha lUMli. Mr. Prentice sti'il'd up and held har to him. Jerry now aaw that hla evee wira wil. Mre. t'or belt waa there, too. waiting to kla Joan. Bud slapped Jerry on tha bark. "Wall. It'a all over, Ji'rry." ha aald hilariously. "All over but tha shouting. You'ra lucky, boy." "I muffed It." Jerry aald dis gustedly, "1 muffed It horribly. " "Well, you wouldn't exactly take any prttee, but nobody noticed." Mr. Prentice had Jerry'a hand. Jerry looked Ilka a Utile boy ba aide Preiilice'a towering atutura. "Ila good to her. i'orhott. 8ha waa all I had to gla anybody, yon know." Jarry (alt eorry for him. Ha waa rertalnly being a good aport bout lu Ha waa going to answer him but before ba could get the word out Mr. Prentice, waa disappear ing Into tha crowd. Bud waa thara again baalda him. "The thing to do" ha began. Jerry flnlahed tha sentence (or hltn. "la to get out of here." Ha hunt through tha ring and grabbed Joau'a hand. Bud cleared a path for them and they flew down tha alula and out Into tha atreet. Tha ditorway waa aurrounded by cameras that ehot off atmtiltaneoualy aa Joan and Jerry rushed past them.

But It Is likely alto to bring yon an after-the-hollday face. Few people get through the Tuletlde season without aoma strain of It showing In their facea. There it the atraln of giving and attending parties, tha strain ot losa of sleep, the strain of getting back to work after a happy holi day. Your akin may show It first. If you have a certain roughness broken out on your skin, don't tackle the akin. It probably Is, yonr digestion and will clear Iluelf up when yon resume your regular routine. You may look aallow. Why shouldn't you. after rich food and continued gaiety. Or even after the nerve-wracking effort to keep up with the whole family home from school or home from work. Ke-conditioning your complex Ion ahould atart with your health. That Is the only scientific way to get that bloom of youth back Into your face. If you could take aerl ously the advice to sleep nine hours a night, with one whole 12 hours In bed once a week for a month. It would do wonders for you. Next, simplify your diet. Drink plenty of water, go easy on atlm nlauti with your mealt and avoid rich, heavy foods. Lastly come to your skin's prob lems. Use a little elbow grease and give your face a maasage ev ery other day at least, preferably every night before retiring. Don't do It In the regular routine way. Do it with the idea that aa you look at yourself In the mirror, your skin Is going to grow clearer and amoother as you watch. One of the big reasons yon look the way you do la just pure let-down. Your own psychology will help you to be yourself again. MAW liiU-rerttlnc belta war noted on evening iowm ahown at a recent exclusive fashion ahow.
